US2 is not an interstate, but there is I-90 going through the same mountains that has 3 lanes each direction

Haha! Thats exactly why our roads are so rubbish.

It takes them forever to add a new lane, by the time they actually add a lane we're ready for another one. Our traffic is definitely deserving of Dual Carriageway in between all main towns in my vicinity.

Looks very serene, and the overcast is very easy on the eyes. Cool pics.

Everytime I see NYC pics that Metlife building is there. I'm going to walk past it.

I hardly ever notice it from ground-level, Grand Central Station stands out more to me.

That building used to be called the RCA building when I was a kid. It's awesomely huge. Just wait until you stand underneath it - that building is a true monster.

While I might envy you going to NYC - I certainly don't envy the timing - the city in summer is not for me! Fall, winter, spring - yes, but not high summer. I suggest you dress cool (shorts, thin shirt.)
